Proper way to reload a singlestack ?

[2MoreChains]

This is a cool thread since I'm only shooting skinny guns. I noticed that at my current level if I try to rush, I'm not always consistent. Sometimes I'm very smooth (to the point of "how the heck did I just do that") but sometimes not so stellar. Dry practice is helping.

I did realize that I need to start the reloading process w/ my off hand sooner, i.e. be reaching for a spare mag about the same time I hit the ejector button. I remember in my last match there was a stage that involved running approx 25 ft to the 2nd shooting box. Most of the way there my brain was saying: reload, reload, reload! I did manage to hit the eject button on leaving the 1st box, but I was over halfway there before my hand obeyed the brain and reached for a mag...

I made a mental note to chew gum while walking at least four or five times this week as practice!

Thx, as always, this is all informative.
